Take a Step Forward
We are all equal, but some are more equal than others. In this activity, participants take on roles and move forward depending on their experiences and opportunities in life. This method raises awareness about inequality of opportunity, develops imagination and critical thinking and fosters empathy with others who are less fortunate.
